8NEWS BRIEFS

ED • Friday, November 29, 2013 • mysuburbanlife.com • Suburban Life

VILLA PARK – The commander of Villa Park’s VFW post was recently named Aidede-Camp to the national VFW commander-in-chief – one of just four individuals nationwide to receive the distinction.

Dennis Geiseman, commander for the Villa Park VFW Post 2801, 29 E. St Charles Road, was appointed a National Aide-de-Camp to VFW Commander-in-Chief William Thien.

The Aide-de-Camp is a special appointment by the commander-in-chief that is awarded to a trustworthy member capable of executing special requests and assignments made by the chief, said Randi Law, communications and public affairs manager for the VFW National Headquarters.

The honor is awarded to local post commanders who

have been recommended for outstanding service to the post and the local community.

A total of five post commanders can be chosen; four were chosen this year.

Geiseman, addressing the Villa Park Village Board at its regular board meeting Monday night, deferred praise for the award.

“It’s a true honor for our VFW,” Geiseman said. “It doesn’t come from me, it comes from everybody in the community helping out.”

The Village Board gave Geiseman a loud round of applause when he announced that he had won the award.

Geiseman thanked the board for its support, particularly in the past year as the post worked to reconstruct its building following a fire that destroyed it in 2012.

“From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank each Matthew Piechalak - mpiechalak@shawmedia.com and every one of you,” he said. Dennis Geiseman, post commander for the Villa Park VFW Post 2801, cuts the ribbon during a grand re“Villa Park is all about hu- opening ceremony at the post in June. Geiseman was recently appointed a National Aide-de-Camp to VFW manity – I love this town.”

“I’m trying to teach kids about serving others – it’s an opportunity, it’s an obligation and it’s a part of our human character,” he said.

With the award, $1,000 was donated to the high school, and Engel was given two tickets to the Nov. 17 Chicago Bears game against the Baltimore Ravens, along with VIP sideline access, recognition on the video board and a custom Bears jersey.

Despite torrential rain, wicked thunderstorms and a nearly two-hour rain delay that included the evacuation of the seating area, Engel said the game was great.

At holiday time, people affected by abuse especially need the kindness of strangers, for this is when they are at their most vulnerable – cut off from everything and sometimes everyone they are close to.

Family Shelter Service was founded 37 years ago to address the unique needs of these individuals both at holiday time COMMUNITY and throughout the year.

VOICE For many of our clients, Maureen staying in a shelter during the McGuire holidays can be one of the most difficult times. Our client, “Angela,” fled a violent home with her two young children shortly before the holidays. In the shelter, with time to reflect on the tragedy of her abusive relationship, she became overwhelmed.

To help her heal from the trauma, Angela underwent individual counseling and also participated in Family Shelter’s Mom and Kids Support Group with her children.

As the holiday approached, Family Shelter supporters and former clients began to stop by with donations and gifts for the women and children in shelter at the annual Holiday Shoppe event – this year Dec. 5, 6 and 9. One woman told Angela that she had been in the same situation at one time and that she couldn’t stop thinking about the mothers and children who would spend their holiday in a shelter.

Angela was touched and moved by the generosity of these people who didn’t know her. She and her children were invited to participate in Family Shelter’s annual Home Sweet Home event – this year on Dec. 7 at the Abbington in Glen Ellyn – a community gingerbread decorating event featuring storybook characters and Santa Claus.

Other mothers the in shelter came as well and she found herself celebrating with people who understood her experience better than anyone. Angela later commented that it was the most tranquil holiday she’d ever had.

While we always hope that our shelter will be empty this holiday, we know it will not. Domestic battery is the most prevalent crime in Illinois, according to the Illinois Crime Commission. It is critical that we all participate in making the issue known in our community so that another family won’t have to spend their holiday in a shelter, depending on the kindness of strangers.

“The hard part is making sure I don’t overcommit,” said Baren. “We know these churches have greater need than we can fill.”

Because of that, Baren works hard to estimate how much each meal will cost, since prices fluctuate from year to year and how much money the Elks will be able

That way, he can commit a certain number of meals to each church or community center, and they know how many dinners they need to seek through other means.

Elmhurst Elks member Tony Dardano said the Thanksgiving Dinner event is one of the most rewarding of the year for the lodge.

“You don’t understand the full impact until the thank

ELMHURST – For about two decades, the Elmhurst Elks Lodge No. 1531 has been assembling Thanksgiving dinners for families who otherwise might not have one.

“I try to be as generous with all of them as I can,” said Michael Baren, the lodge’s Thanksgiving Dinner Chairman. “I’d rather give five churches 30 or 35 meals each, than one church 161 meals.”

They aren’t turkey TV dinners either. Each Thanksgiving Dinner box includes a frozen turkey, a fresh pumpkin pie, stuffing, jellied cranberries, mixed vegetables, white potatoes, sweet potatoes and dinner rolls.

“They didn’t skimp one penny on what they did, and we really appreciate it,” said Carol Montgomery Fate, Outreach Coordinator at First Church of Lombard where 35 of the Elks dinners went.

He estimates that if each

Continued from page 11 Elks Association state president.

The Elks receive thank you letters but rarely meet the people they’re serving since the meals are distributed first to churches.

“I don’t really need to know who it goes to,” Baren said, explaining the families have a relationship with the churches or community centers where the meals are distributed.

The Saturday before Thanksgiving, the Elks pick up the refrigerated items early in the morning. Then about 75 volunteers from churches, the Villa Park, Lombard and Elmhurst police departments, students and Elks members gather in the lodge to execute an efficient packing process that’s been refined over the years.

“We have great need within this community,” said Pam Stefik, the Immaculate Conception director of Christian ministry.

Immaculate Conception

Parish received food for 30 dinners from the Elks, but they used that food to supplement donations they collect from their parish, Visitation Parish and Journey Church to create 120 baskets. Those baskets were then distributed to people on lists at the Immaculate Conception Food Pantry, Greencastle senior low-income housing and Catholic Charities.

“We always put more food in the basket,” said Stefik.

“It’s not just a Thanksgiving meal. It’s food that will last them for a few days after.”

The First Church of Lombard also used the 35 meals from the Elks to supplement the holiday meals they distribute from The Outreach House.

“Basically, the Elks have allowed us to double what we give out,” said Montgomery Fate.

Baren hopes that even though the Elks can’t supply everyone with a Thanksgiving dinner who needs one, that by making the effort, others might feel inspired to help.

“I think what it does is, it raises awareness of what’s going on,” Baren said.

gg; of Carolyn (Stephen) Hemman and Howard Clegg; aunt of devoted nephews and nieces.

She was born and raised in Norwich, Connecticut, and graduated from Gettysburg College in 1963 with a double major in history and education and met her husband of 50 years there. Nancy and family moved around the country more than a dozen times, primarily due to her husband's job transfers, and she always quickly made friends, embraced her fresh surroundings, and redecorated her new homes.

Her primary career and highest priority was raising her family, but Nancy also pursued a variety of positions, including elementary school teacher, bookkeeper, visitors' center representative, and several bank customer service positions.

Among her many interests and talents, Nancy was renowned for her craft projects, from making candles to creating pinecone wreaths to reupholstering furniture. She also singlehandedly repainted the interiors of all her new homes and was a superb landscaper. Nancy would keep up with the ins and outs of the financial markets, the latest recipes, and TV shows ranging from “Law & Order” to anything on the History Channel. She also was a master entertainer, renowned for her generosity and thoughtfulness. Gracious and ever interested in others, Nancy always put people at ease and enjoyed discussing everything from news, culture, food, and most of all family. Nancy, who will be remembered for her sweet, caring, classy, and genteel personality, will be forever missed by her family and many friends.

8SOUND OFF Veterans Day is not a holiday?

I’m calling out the village of Downers Grove. Apparently, on Veterans Day, the village of Downers Grove didn’t feel that that was a holiday. So on all their parking signs that said “No parking, except Saturdays, Sundays or holidays” you would get a ticket if you’re parked there. When I went to the police department I was told by a dispatcher it must be a mistake.

So I filled out a form and a police officer called me back. He had to look it up to see if it was a holiday. The chief of police then advised me that Downers Grove doesn’t recognize Veterans Day as an actual holiday as it is not on their approved list of holidays. But the day after Thanksgiving and the day before Christmas are considered holidays according to Downers Grove. I think this is outrageous that they don’t honor our vets and consider a federal holiday an actual parking day.

Clean the drains?

The village of Downers Grove is advertising in our little Village Corner that they want the fee payers to help keep the storm grates free and clear of leaves and other debris, but excuse me, isn’t that why we pay a fee for stormwater management?

Call the village or attend a village council meeting and demand they keep the drains clean, seeing how we’re paying for that service.

Too many vacant storefronts in Westmont

I am a resident of Westmont, and Saturday, Nov. 30 is Small Business Saturday in which people are encouraged to shop locally with their minority and mom and pop private businesses. Incentives are received and money stays within the community. I am appalled when I drove through Westmont knowing the committee we have to develop businesses in our community Sick of Toronto mayor on how many stores are vacant I, for one, am getting a little sick of all the slamming of Toron- and available anywhere from the tracks north to Ogden Avenue. to Mayor Rob Ford. Why don’t Certainly this is not a sign of we discuss when our mayor of the times as Hinsdale, Downers the capitol of the United States of America was caught smoking Grove and Naperville seem to crack.

And they practically just slapped Maybe then we won’t receive a him on the wrist, and next thing fee in our water roll-off program you know he’s running for office in which they’re considering again and gets put back in. Isn’t based on the rain water in the stormwater system. It’s just that a slap in the face tor all American people?

mgrigaliunas@shawmedia.com ELMHURST – Two days after an EF-4 tornado ripped through Washington, Ill., Tom Janito found the photo of a girl on the street near Clara Place and Schiller Street in Elmhurst.

“It didn’t have anything written on the back,” said Janito, the Elmhurst utility inspector and utility locator.

He had no idea who the photo might belong to, but then he heard about the Facebook page titled,“Found items from the Washington Illinois and Dia mond Illinois Tornadoes.”

Janito thought it was a long shot, but uploaded the photo to the page anyway.

More than 1,500 people have liked the page where individuals are posting items they’ve lost, and others like Janito are posting items they’ve

found.

Sure enough, Jacob Williams of Washington commented on the photo saying the girl was his sister.

“Oddly enough I had a resident bring [a photo] in on Friday that I posted, and it belonged to the same person,” said Janito.

The second photo was of Jacob Williams’ father, Curt, dancing with a woman, possibly at a wedding. Janito was able to contact Williams and plans to mail the photos back to him.

“Their home was completely destroyed,” Janito said after talking to Williams.

Janito said he’s still on the lookout for photos or other items that may have blown into town. If anyone else finds items, Janito is willing to post them on the Facebook page.

Found items can be dropped off at City Hall to Tom Janito’s attention.

Scarletti’s: Cozy atmosphere, comfort food DOWNERS GROVE – With its quaint setting and madefrom-scratch fare, Scarletti’s Italian Kitchen is a great escape, whether it be from wintry temps, a stressful workday or the craze of holiday shopping.

A colleague and I headed out to the downtown Downers Grove restaurant on a recent weeknight.

Once we stepped into the cozy restaurant, any leftover frustration from the rush hour traffic and chilly weather was replaced with ease from the warmly lit atmosphere and tasty scents wafting from Scarletti’s kitchen.

The attractive dining room makes for an intimate setting, whether you’re with a significant other, family, friends or a business partner, and overlooks the city right along Main Street with large windows.

Once seated, we soon were greeted with Scarletti’s customary basket of bread and marinara dipping sauce.

It was a nice change-up from the standard bread-and-oil setups at most Italian restaurants, and nearly made for an appetizer on its own. Still, we had to try the bruschetta appetizer, which proved a good call with its combination of fresh tomato and basil, prepared with a balsamic drizzle for added style and flavor points.

For our main courses, my colleague, in the mood for a hearty, home-cooked meal, opted for the Chianti Braised Short Ribs, an interesting selection he was very happy with. The boneless short ribs are slathered in a red wine reduction sauce, served on a bed of whipped potatoes and topped with a seasonal vegetable puree.

I went with a classic that’s a must-try for me whenever I dine at an Italian restaurant that’s new to me: the Chicken Parmesan.

The entree had very generous portions of chicken breast and a side of pasta. The chicken was tender and its marinara sauce proved a perfect complement. If you’re partial

Glenbard East’s Jaron Hall gets ready to shoot against Glenbard North during the District 87 Thanksgiving Tournament on Monday. Hall is the Rams’ only returning starter from last year.

Hit hard by graduation, Rams look to rebound

By DAN SANTAROMITA

Glenbard East Rams

dsantaromita@shawmedia.com LOMBARD – The contrast from a year ago is sharp at Glenbard East, but the talent is still there.

The Rams lost four starters from last year’s conference and regional champion squad.

Three players from that group are playing in college: Marvin Grant-Clark (Maryville), Tahron Harvey (Benedictine) and Mike Kjeldsen (Carthage).

Currently in place for the Rams are a younger group of players that have good upside, but may struggle to get consistent play and wins early in the season.

Senior guard Jaron Hall

Coach: Scott Miller Conference: DuPage Valley 2012-13 record: 20-7 (13-1 DVC) Next game: 2:30 p.m. Saturday at Glenbard East/Hinsdale Central crossover tournament Top returners: Tyler Behrendt sr. F

is the only starter and major contributor back from a year ago. Hall has great speed and can light up the scoreboard in a hurry. He scored 29 points in the Rams’ 67-61 loss to Glenbard West on Tuesday.

“He had a big year last year

for us and he’s much better as a playmaker, as a scorer, as a leader,” Glenbard East coach Scott Miller said. “He’s got to continue to be that on the floor.”

Spencer Trefilek is the only other senior returner joining

Hall in the starting lineup.

Senior 6-foot-7 newcomer Darryl Jones also started in early games. Senior Tyler Behrendt is another returner in the rotation, which runs 10 deep so far.

The excitement in the program is around the young talent on the team, namely freshman Michael Finley. Finley is the first freshman Miller has had on the varsity team from the start of the season. The 6-foot-2 guard is starting and scored 14 against Glenbard West.

“He’s going to be a special player for us,” Miller said.

“He’s a big, strong kid.”

Sophomore guard Jack Grigat is also starting with

6-foot-4 sophomore forward Patrick Peterkin and sophomore guard Terrance Lakes coming off the bench for now.

“I think our young guys are coming along just fine,” Miller said. “They play hard.

They’re listening. We got a long way to go.

“As long as they keep listening and they don’t bring their head down, we’re going to grow. This team, the sky is the limit. We don’t want to be playing our best now. We want to just keep getting better. We’re definitely going to improve.”

In addition to their loss to Glenbard West, the Rams fell to Glenbard North 62-46 on Monday.

MORE BEARS COVERAGE AT HUBARKUSH.COM

Can Bears’ defense stop Adrian Peterson?

Hub Arkush

For the most part, things have not gone well for the Minnesota Vikings since the Bears last saw them in Soldier Field the second week of the season.

But after all kinds of turmoil at the quarterback position because of injury and the surprising signing of Josh Freeman, who then failed miserably in his one start before suffering a concussion, the Vikings look an awful lot like the club the Bears barely got by in Week 2 with their 31-30 victory on a last-minute touchdown pass from Jay Cutler to Martellus Bennett.

Christian Ponder appears to be firmly re-entrenched as the starting quarterback, and Adrian Peterson will be coming off one of his best games of the season in Green Bay, where the Vikings played the Packers

to a tie in overtime.

Most of the biggest questions in this matchup will be about the Bears’ mindset after the egg they laid in St. Louis on Sunday, and whether they have any hope at all of slowing Peterson with the worst run defense in the NFL. Peterson rushed for 146 yards on 32 carries and a touchdown in five quarters of football, and while he hasn’t approached his 2012 heroics, he was still the NFL’s second-leading rusher before the Redskins-49ers game Monday night with 997 total yards, a 4.4 average and 10 touchdowns.

Ponder has been a threat on the ground with 34 scrambles for 151 yards and four touchdowns, and he’s completing 64.5 percent of his passes for a 78.7 passer rating, seven touchdowns and nine interceptions. While his passing numbers on the season don’t scare you, he did complete 21 of 30 throws for 233 yards and a 103.9 passer rating Sunday at Lambeau.

Greg Jennings and Jerome Simpson have been up and down, but are

reliable targets for Ponder when the Vikings are playing well. Cordarrelle Patterson is a factor in the kick return game, but is still struggling to find himself as a receiver.

On defense, the Vikings have struggled all year. They are 30th in total defense, 14th versus the run but 29th against the pass. They are 23rd in interception percentage and 26th rushing the quarterback.

On the defensive line, Jared Allen and Kevin Williams are former all pros who are both still capable of having big games, but don’t do it on a regular basis any more. LeTroy Guion and Brian Robison still are starting as well, and this is the unit that helped key the Vikings playoff run in 2012, but they have all struggled this year.

Chad Greenway is still the guy you have to identify on Minnesota’s defense, and he’ll make plays all over the field, but Erin Henderson in the middle and Marvin Mitchell on the weak side are guys the Bears should be able to exploit.

Josh Robinson and Chris Cook are

third- and second-round draft picks, respectively, on the corners who are both athletic and fast enough but terribly inconsistent, which is why this team is 29th in pass defense.

The safeties, Jamarca Sanford and Andrew Sendejo, aren’t bad forcing the run, but do struggle in coverage.

At the end of the day for the Bears, this one comes down to what are they going to do about Peterson? After going off for a 140 on the ground week nine against the Cowboys, Peterson had been held in check by the Redskins and Seahawks before exploding again in Green Bay. The unfortunate fact is if the Vikings climb on Peterson’s back, there is little the Bears will be able to do but get into a shootout.

The good news is that Josh McCown continues to flourish in Marc Trestman’s offense, and the Bears have a lot more weapons on offense than Minnesota, giving them an excellent chance to prevail by piling up points, which is exactly what happened the last time they got together.

THANKSGIVING DAY PREVIEW Packers at Lions, 11:30 a.m.

This game not only features several intriguing fantasy matchups, it also is pivotal to the NFC North. The big

Stafford should be productive against the Packers’ 18thranked defense. The Packers equally are mediocre versus the run and the pass, so start Reggie Bush.

Raiders at Cowboys, 3:30 p.m.

The late-afternoon game should be a bonanza for Tony Romo and Dez Bryant. The Raiders’ defense ranks No. 8 against the run, but a dismal No. 25 versus the pass. It would be a surprise if Romo didn’t crest 300 yards and throw at least two touchdown passes, probably more. Jason Witten also is a must start. Terrance Williams has disappeared, and

all other Cowboys’ receivers would seem to be afterthoughts at this point. Although the Raiders are respectable against the run – sticking with the idea that this will be a shootout – start DeMarco Murray and Dan Bailey.

The Cowboys actually have the weaker defense in this contest, ranking last in points and passing yards. Assuming Darren McFadden will be in street clothes, Rashard Jennings is a great play. If Denarius Moore returns, he is a solid play. If not, take a close look at Rod Streater.

Steelers at Ravens, 7:30 p.m.

Two good, but not great, defenses face off in the night game. Ben Roethlisberger has averaged 22 fantasy points over the past four weeks.

He has been up and down, however. He might be looking at something around 15 points this week. The Steelers still drive fantasy owners crazy

with their running-back rotation, but Le’Veon Bell is clearly the best option. This week, he’s probably looking at 10 to 14 points. Antonio Brown is a top-five fantasy receiver and an obvious play. After Brown, it gets dicey. Jerricho Cotchery had emerged during weeks 9-11, but he went without a reception against the Browns.

After lighting up the Bears in week 11, Ray Rice reverted to his 2013 form against the Jets (16 carries for 30 yards).

Although the Jets are stout against the run, it’s time to look at Rice as a No. 3 fantasy back or flex option. In smaller leagues, he’s probably not worth a roster spot. After kicker Justin Tucker and receiver Torrey Smith, the Ravens do not offer much in this game.

Given his recent production, it’s hard to recommend Joe Flacco. Call it a gut instinct: He scores 20-plus points against Pittsburgh.

The bye weeks are over, but week 13 presents a new challenge for fantasy owners: Three Thursday games.

Ah, Thanksgiving! Nothing beats spending time with loved ones, enjoying a fine feast … and getting a jump on your fantasy opponent! I’m not suggesting that Aunt Mildred’s discussions aren’t riveting, but it’s always fun to have players going on Thanksgiving.

A closer look at Thursday’s games will help you determine which players can help your team and those who are likely to be … turkeys (ouch).

question, of course, is whether Aaron Rodgers will play. As of Monday morning, his status was uncertain. Matt Flynn came to the rescue last week against Minnesota, taking over for a struggling Scott Tolzien.

Obviously, the Packers are a stronger play if it’s Rodgers, but either quarterback should produce. Flynn seemed to have a connection with Jarrett Boykin, who hauled in five receptions and a touchdown in the second half. The Lions’ defense is ranked No. 28 against the pass. Boykin, James Jones and Jordy Nelson are solid starts. Kicker Mason Crosby also is in for a good day. It might be tougher for Eddie Lacy – Detroit is No. 4 against the run – but we still like the talented rookie this week.

The Lions are among the league’s dumbest teams.

They also are one of the most talented. Calvin Johnson is an obvious start and Matthew

The Broncos beat Sycamore 42-20 in a Class 5A state semifinal Saturday afternoon in Lombard to make a fifth straight trip to the state final.

Montini, now 13-0, will face Sacred Heart-Griffin in the 5A final at Huskie Stadium in DeKalb Saturday at 10 a.m. Despite winning five state titles under coach Chris Andriano, the Broncos have never captured one with an undefeated record.

“That was our No. 1 goal going into the season,” Montini senior wide receiver Tyler Tumpane said of going undefeated. “We’re one game away so we really want to finish this off.”

The previous two times Montini went 9-0 in the regular season, 1995 and 2008, it lost in the quarterfinals.

“That would be something special, but it’s all about one game now,” Andriano said.

Montini led throughout against Sycamore. The Broncos scored on their first two drives to take a 14-0 lead and took a 28-14 advantage into halftime. Matt Brachmann and Wills added second half scores to put the game away.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

Addison Trail/Willowbrook co-op | Junior | Swimming Why McNamara was selected: McNamara was second in the 100-yard butterfly at the state meet at New Trier on Saturday.

Willowbrook junior Kelly McNamara represented the Addison Trail/Willowbrook co-op at the state swim meet last weekend.

McNamara, who has been swimming since she was six years old, was second in the 100-yard butterfly with a time of 55.11 seconds.

She made her third appearance at state and improved on finishing sixth last year. McNamara, the Oak Trust Credit Union Athlete of the Week, spoke with sports reporter Dan Santaromita about taking a medal home from the state meet.

What was your reaction when you touched the wall in second place?

During prelims I was seeded second so it was kind of nice to see that I stayed where I was.

Were you surprised when you were second in the prelims?

I didn’t expect it. I was really excited when I saw it on the board.

What was your expectation heading into state?

Last year I got sixth so I just wanted to do better than that.

What’s it like to swim at state in that wild atmosphere?

It’s so crazy, especially at finals.

It’s different than any other meet I’ve been to.

The girl who finished ahead of you was a senior. Is it your goal to win next year?

I haven’t really thought about it, but it would be nice to win.

Are you still working out or do you now have some off time?

I’ve gotten the past couple days off, but I’m starting again. It’s nice to eat what you want and sleep in.

Is it tough to maintain the dedicated workout schedule?

It’s hard. We have morning practices and practices after school.

It’s a long season.

t’s the holiday season, a time of year where big meals take center stage. But don’t just ill your holiday plate with turkey, gravy and cranberry sauce — pitch in and try your skills in the kitchen.

Cooking is about more than just whipping up some yummy food. While you’re having fun making a mess in the kitchen, you’re also learning about safety and following directions, and you’re brushing up on your math skills (whether you like it or not).

ask an adult to preheat

the oven to 425 degrees.
